Sexual, psychological and dyadic qualities of the prostate cancer ‘couple’

Abstract

Information from this study could be useful in constructing interventions that allow the physician and the prostate cancer 'couple' to reflect on issues of sexual function and psychological distress that might once have been considered taboo. The results characterize the disparities between patients with prostate cancer and their partners on self-reported questionnaires, and underscore how important it is to hear the voice of the 'couple'.
